May is Asian Heritage Month, and to commemorate the occasion we’ve gathered five quotes from Priyanka Chopra, in which the “Citadel” star shares her insights on making her mark on Hollywood as a South Asian woman.
1. The Immigrant’s Journey
When Chopra as cast as Alex Parrish on ABC drama “Quantico”, she made history as the first South Asian actor to lead an American network series.
“First of all, as a woman in my mid-thirties to leave my country and my friends and my familiarity and the industry that taught me everything, where I know every filmmaker and every actor, to suddenly come into an industry where I knew no one and people didn’t know my work, or what I’d been able to accomplish or the diversity of my filmography, and at the same time, having no friends and no community, it was really lonely,” Chopra told The Hollywood Reporter,...

When Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ manager first met her at a Chinese restaurant in Bombay in 2007, they bonded over their mutual love of hip-hop & R&b. “I remember her dancing and singing every lyric of TLC’s ‘No Scrubs’ and me being like, ‘Oh my God, this girl’s really cool,'” Anjula Acharia recalls. “I said something like that to her and she told me, ‘I was raised in Queens, baby.'”
In reality, Chopra Jonas was born in Jamshedpur, Bihar, and raised in several cities throughout India, as her parents were physicians in the Indian Army. But her love of music was global, much like her stardom would later be. Known as the “Beyoncé of Bollywood” at the time for her successful career acting in Indian films, Acharia eventually signed the star to Interscope Records’ DesiHits music label where she would achieve moderate success with the 2012 single “In My...

Padma Lakshmi had the cleverest response after The New Yorker’s Instagram account confused the Indian author and “Top Chef” host with Indian actress Priyanka Chopra by accidentally tagging Chopra in a photo of Lakshmi.
“Thank you to the illustrious ‘@nydailynews’ for the shoutout,” Lakshmi wrote in a caption to go with a screen shot of the mistake, deliberately tagging the wrong publication. “I know to some we all look alike, but… #desilife #justindianthings.”
The New Yorker has since deleted the Instagram post. Reps for Chopra and the magazine did not respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.

While the freshman season of the Quantico TV show started out strong for ABC, it fell throughout that first year. The second year saw it sink even further, but the Alphabet Network's scheduling woes (and overall programming problems) didn't help. Still it wasn't cancelled, probably thanks to streaming and overseas deals. Now it's back for a third season after a three year time jump in the narrative. Is the storyline better for that shakeup? Will Quantico be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned. *Status update below.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the very last episode of Quantico.
On Quantico Season 3 Episode 13, the emotions are running high as the team battled Conor Devlin one last time. As far as final showdowns go, this one did the season-long vendetta justice.
Devlin proved that he is not one to mess around with, as evident by him murdering Andrea while he was pleading for Isabella's life. This was completely unexpected and shocking.
Andrea's death was a reminder of how high the stakes are. It was done for shock value; there's no doubt about that, and it also gave Alex a way to end the series with a family, but we'll talk about that later.
Before his death, Andrea delivered some savage blows to Alex, but who can blame him? He really got the raw end of the deal in all of this.
Andrea and Alex's reunion made the finale even more emotional.

Spoiler alert: This story contains details from tonight’s Quantico series finale.
After three seasons on ABC, the Priyanka Chopra-starring FBI thriller Quantico has come to an end, and left little on the table.
Action-packed series finale “Who Are You?” takes us back to Dublin, Ireland—to a church where Eamon Devlin’s funeral is being held. Boldly striding into the church, even with on-again, off-again FBI agent Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) sitting in the pews—and her fellow FBI agents standing outside, taking photographs of funeral attendees—Conor Devlin delivers his eulogy.
He speaks about his son, murdered by Americans—the same Americans who put him in chains, and murdered his brother to boot. (Fake news: It was in fact Conor who took his own brother’s life.)
Calling out the FBI agents in the room as murderers, Devlin vows to give up all vendettas and blood feuds against his fellow Irishmen.

Priyanka Chopra ‘saddened and sorry’ after TV series portrayed Hindu terror plot
The Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra has apologised after a furore over a Us TV series that showed her uncovering a terror plot hatched by Indian Hindu nationalists.
The episode of the spy thriller Quantico showed Chopra’s character, an FBI agent named Alex Parrish, thwarting the plan and noticing one of the terrorists wearing a Hindu rosary. The terrorists had tried to frame Pakistanis for the attack planned ahead of a summit on Kashmir, a disputed Himalayan territory that arch-rivals India and Pakistan both claim.

After last week’s cancellation of Quantico, ABC has announced that the terrorism drama will finish out its third and final season on Friday nights.
Starting on May 25, Quantico will make its move from Thursday nights to Friday nights at 8 PM. The drama starring Priyanka Chopra is one of many ABC shows that got the ax last week. The ousted list includes Deception, The Crossing, Alex, Inc. as well as Kevin (Probably) Saves the World, The Mayor, Ten Days in the Valley and Marvel’s Inhumans.
Quantico, from ABC Studios and producer Mark Gordon, was a breakout when it debuted in fall 2015, setting delayed viewing lift records. But with its dense narrative and heavy serialization, the series started to lose momentum in the second half of its first season and continued to see declines though Season 2 and into Season 3.

It’s back to the vineyards for Alex Parrish — Quantico has been cancelled after three seasons.
The action drama — which is currently airing its third season on ABC — starred Priyanka Chopra as FBI agent Alex Parrish, who soon became a person of interest in a terrorist attack on Grand Central in New York City. The story, of course, developed quite a bit further in the two seasons since.
The series also starred Josh Hopkins, Jake McLaughlin, Aunjanue Ellis, Yasmine Al Massri, Johanna Braddy, Tate Ellington, Graham Rogers, Anabelle Acosta, Russell Tovey, Pearl Thusi, Blair Underwood, Marlee Matlin and Alan Powell,...

ABC’s terrorism drama Quantico will not see a fourth season. The network has opted to cancel the series starring Priyanka Chopra. Its Season 3 finale will now serve as the series ender.
Quantico, from ABC Studios and producer Mark Gordon, was a breakout when it debuted in fall 2015, setting delayed viewing lift records. But with its dense narrative and heavy serialization, the series started to lose momentum in the second half of its first season and continued to see declines into Season 3. It came down-to-the-wire last season for the drama series when it scored a last-minute abbreviated Season 3 renewal with a reduced license fee and new creative under a new showrunner.
While not a big linear ratings performer, especially in Live+Same Day, Quantico has done well in delayed viewing and has been a solid international seller for ABC Studios.
Created by Joshua Safran, ABC’s terrorism drama starred Chopra as Alex Parrish.

Ioan Gruffudd’s Australian crime drama Harrow is heading to the UK after Discovery and BBC Studios-backed broadcaster UKTV struck a five-show deal with Hollywood studio deal.
The volume deal also includes Katy Mixon’s American Housewife, the first U.S. comedy picked up by the broadcaster after an extensive sitcom search, and Jodie Whittaker-fronted The Assets as well as the return of Quantico and Code Black.
Harrow, which will air on UKTV’s Alibi, co-created by Secrets & Lies writer Stephen M. Irwin and producer Leigh McGrath tells the story of Dr. Daniel Harrow, played by Gruffudd, who is no ordinary forensic pathologist, whose unfailing empathy for the dead help him solve even the most bizarre of cases. The series is produced by ABC Studios International in association with Australian producer Hoodlum.
Season three of Quantico, which stars Priyanka Chopra as FBI recruit Alex Parrish, also returns to Alibi.

At only three seasons old, Quantico has been quite a force since it premiered in 2015. We were introduced to one of the strongest female leads on TV right now, Priyanka Chopra’s Alex Parrish. The stories have been bold and the acting has been solid for the last couple of season, but many believe that season 3 may be its last. If that were so, we’ll surely miss some of these strong characters, especially Alex Parrish. We know that Chopra’s career will probably skyrocket after Quantico, but here are three other Quantico stars that we think will take off with

This black ops team doesn't seem like anything special to me.
On Quantico Season 3 Episode 2, the new "elite" black ops team took on their first mission, but it's still a little bit unclear as to why they were the team for the job.
We're going to need a bit more explanation as to what exactly it is that this team does. The attack warranted the FBI stepping in, but why did it call for a black ops team instead of ordinary FBI agents?
It's all unclear.
There are no guidelines as to what type of cases this new team takes, and what makes them so unique. The only somewhat clue we're given as to how this group of people differs from all the other agents was when Alex said she trusts them when she doesn't trust the FBI.
I hate to say this, but Ryan was right when he made...

Need to catch up? Check out the previous Quantico post mortem here.
Ciao, bella!
Quantico‘s Alex Parrish probably thought she’d be hearing a lot more Italian, and a lot less gunfire, in her post-Season-2-finale life. But let’s be honest: All the cappuccinos in the world couldn’t keep her in the civilian life for long, not when Ryan comes calling with those earnest, spy-puppy-dog eyes. Plus: This show isn’t going to reboot itself, right?
Read on for the highlights of “The Conscience Code.”

Quantico is back Thursday (10/9c) with a new showrunner, some new cast members and yet another reset of the ABC spy drama. (Don’t worry: There’s still just one timeline.)
At our last rendezvous with FBI/CIA agent Alex Parrish and her fellow elite spites, they’d just taken down a crooked president — in part by breaking the law, as well as faking Alex’s death. When she had to go into hiding afterward, sometime boyfriend/fellow G-man Ryan decided to chuck it all and get on the plane with her.
But three years’ time has passed between the...
